I like Danica pronounced Dan-ick-a but not Duh-neek-a

Out of your names I really like James Alexander. Kaleb James isn't bad though. I'm not crazy about either of the girl names at all.

Love Danica Rae!!! Is she pronouncing it the original way, DAH-nee-tzah?

For your names, I like James Alexander Leigh (because James Alexander is too common) and Amber Dawn, withouth Lynn if that's an option, because the Lynn Dawn or Dawn Lynn combination either way sounds chinese.

Caleb James (don't like Kaleb) and James Alexander.

Danica Rae is not my style at all.

I like the combination of Amber Lynn a lot, always have.

I like James Alexander, but Leigh always seems feminine to me, and I don't like that spelling of Caleb.

Congrats!

All of those are decent names IMO, even though I never considered Hayden on a girl before.
Amber Lynn Dawn doesn't flow too well because of the two one-syllable names. How about Dawn Amber Lynn?
I don't like Kaleb, but that's a matter of personal taste.
James Alexander Leigh sounds really good!

Danica Rae isn't really my style.

Amber Lynn Dawn doesn't flow very well, and sounds dated to me.
Hayden is a male name, and quite trendy at that (all those -aiden/-ayden names are very popular right now!).
Caleb (with the C) James is nice. Kaleb with a K is too trendy for me. The name would be called out more than it would be written, so why not spell it the right way?
I love James Alexander. The Leigh part is feminine to me, but Lee would be ok.

Any reason behind the two middle names?

I'd never even seen Danica before last year but I quite like it. There's a female race driver with the name (maybe spelt with a k not a c? I'm not sure).

Hayden is a unisex name now. I'm guessing it'll become more and more popular now that Heroes has such a huge audience.

There was a porn star named Amber Lynn. You might want to reconsider that.

I like James Alexander, and Caleb James, but not Kaleb. To be honest, Amber Lynn Dawn is kind of '80s trailer trash. And Hayden will always be mistaken for a boy.

You asked for opinions, so I gave you mine. :)

I don't really like Amber Lynn together...I've just seen it a lot.
I like Dawn and I prefer Hayden on a boy.
I love James Alexander and Leigh would be better spelt Lee IMO.

why would you name your baby the same name as your sister?

People here can be brutally honest, so if you don't want to face that you shouldn't come here looking for opinions.

I'd like Hayden Amber Dawn,

Have you thought of honoring your sister in a different way?

You could use a name similar to Lynn:

Linda
Lindy
Lina
Lee
Lea
Lia
Leah
Lida


Behind the name.com says: "From an English surname which derives from Welsh llyn "lake". It can also be a short form of LINDA or names which end in lyn or line."

Maybe Lake?

Or maybe by using a different stone name?

Jade
Pearl
Beryl
Amethyst
Jewel
Gemma
Ruby
Topaz

Also thought you might like these:

Hazel
Sienna
Tawny

Brown colors kind of like Amber.

I immediately thought porn star when I saw the name Amber Lynn

I like Danica Rae.
And I like Kaleb James, but I like Kaleb spelled Caleb better. Caleb James is also my cousins name, but we call him CJ.

I also like Hayden Amber Lynn whether it was a porn star or not.

i like your boy names, but why spell it kaleb rather than the original way of caleb?
i don't really like any of your girl names though. they either seem really dated (80's-esque), like dawn and amber or super trendy, like hayden.

Blah. It's still male to me, and a bad male name at that. :P

Leigh is a girl's name to me.

I really like Kaleb James. =)

Danica is a pretty name.

Not fond of the other names though.

amber lynn dawn doesn't really flow and hayden is really popular right now so i wouldn't use it. i do prefer it on a girl to a boy though, like the girl from heroes.

i don't like kaleb/caleb, but i do like james alexander. leigh seems too feminine to me, i'd go with the lee spelling if at all.

danica rae sounds trashy.
